  • Patent number: 10955276
    Abstract: A wet gas measuring system for calculating mass and volume of a gas and a liquid independently and simultaneously, having one or two hollow bodies, each hollow body having conical section mount interrupting the flow of a mixture of gas and liquid, a conical area ratio changer conditioning the gas to a uniform geometric shape; a protruding dome upstream of the first conical area ratio changer; a ram inlet bore through the dome unaffected by changes in gas viscosity, changes in Reynolds' number, changes in gas and liquid turbulence, and an upstream static pressure sensor; downstream pressure sensor for detecting a differential pressure; a temperature sensor; a ram velocity sensor with a processor and computer instructions for calculating velocity and mass of the gas using a detachable and re-attachable conical area ratio changer.

  • Patent number: 9435199
    Abstract: A self-calibrating fluid measuring device for calculating density and velocity of a fluid. The device can have a hollow body with a chamber for receiving and emitting fluid, a ledge, a conical section mount positioned in the hollow body and secured to the ledge, a temperature sensor extending into a temperature port and an upstream static pressure sensor mounted in a static upstream pressure port, a downstream cone pressure drop sensor mounted in a downstream pressure port, and a ram velocity sensor mounted in a ram velocity port, which can all extend into the chamber. A detachable and re-attachable conical area ratio changer can be connected to the conical section mount having a central bore and a hollow fastener configured to align and center the detachable and re-attachable conical area ratio changer to the conical section mount during measurement.

  • Patent number: 8201457
    Abstract: A fluid measuring device having a hollow body, a conical section mount, a support member, and a sensor mount as a single cast unit. The hollow body can have an exterior surface, an interior surface, and a chamber. The fluid measuring device can be connected to one or more conduits for receiving and emitting a fluid flow. The sensor mount can have ports for measuring pressure, temperature, and other diagnostics in the single cast unit. The fluid measuring device can have a detachable and re-attachable area ratio changer.

  • Patent number: 7966892
    Abstract: The in-line sampler separator utilizes an improved method of measuring the gas, oil and water components in a fuel material mixture being processed at high pressure in a processing system. A sampling loop obtains mixture samples to be collected in a sampler. The sampler releases the collected sample to a separator tank when a certain volume has been reached. The tank operates at or below a pressure that allows the gas component to be released in gaseous form. The oil and water components separate within the tank, and their respective volumes are determined.
